Beginning next month, Guests visiting the Star Wars Launch Bay at Disney’s Hollywood Studios (and at Disneyland Resort in California) will get to interact with one of the newest villains from Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
Guests will encounter Kylo Ren, a dark warrior with a mysterious past, on the bridge of his First Order Star Destroyer. Kylo Ren is a leader of the First Order, seeking to destroy the New Republic, the Resistance and the legacy of the Jedi.

Kylo Ren is the newest character to appear in Star Wars Launch Bay, which was designed to showcase a variety of Star Wars characters over time. In addition to Ren, Guests may also come across a garrison of First Order Stormtroopers or the heroic Wookiee, Chewbacca, holed up in a secret Resistance base.

Once this change takes place, Darth Vader will not be available in Star Wars Launch Bay. Guests may continue to encounter Darth Vader as part of the “Jedi Training: Trials of the Temple” experience near Star Tours- The Adventures Continue.
